Vista LifeSciences Under the Sea

In partnership with the Naval Submarine Medical Research Laboratory (NSMRL) and industry partner, Valtamer, VLS has developed the Hyperbaric Neurocognitive Assessment System (HNAS). The HNAS is a field-deployable, tablet-based neurocognitive assessment tool with specific applications for experimental dive operations in undersea and hyperbaric medical research.

Key features of the prototype include:

  • Android-based tablet with a custom capacitive touch panel
  • Ruggedized protective housing
  • Touch sensitivity tuned for underwater and surface use (toggleable by user)
  • Standardized metrics for neurocognitive assessment

This work was supported by Naval Medical Research Command Naval Advanced Medical Development (NMRC NAMD).

Vista LifeSciences in Space

During the historic Artemis II mission around the moon in 2026, NASA used a customer version of Vista cognitive test products. Designed for high-stakes environments, Vista cognitive test products play a critical role in supporting crew safety and mission success amid the extreme demands of spaceflight, including microgravity, disrupted sleep cycles, and intense operational stress. 

Throughout missions on the International Space Station, astronauts self-administer WinSCAT — NASA’s spaceflight cognitive platform powered by Vista LifeScience’s cognitive tests. This provides real-time insights into essential cognitive functions such as attention, memory, processing speed, and overall readiness, helping ensure peak performance during one of humanity’s most ambitious missions.
